I have some thoughts that occurred to me as I read about your dreams. Just my impressions, but maybe they will trigger something. On the dream about your father - did anyone else ever make a comment that you weren't spending enough time with your father before he passed, or in some situation...

I loved this movie, and all of Danny Kaye's work. He was terrific as Hans Christian Anderson, and of course in the classic White Christmas. My first dance recital was to 'Knock on Wood' from his movie of the same name. Thanks for bringing back some great memories! I'm younger, but I recall...

Welcome. I'm a newbie myself. I read Healing Back Pain in a single sitting, on a night when I had just gotten fed up with dealing with my back pain, just a week and a half ago. I woke the next day, and the continuous ache that I had in my lower back was gone. I'm still having pain in certain...

The work today asks for comments on comparison of my experience to that of Armchair Linguist. This line most caught my attention: 'My pain started to jump around a lot to silly places that had never hurt before, which was pretty darn convincing.' I started with back pain, then got neck pain...

I'm a perfectionist, too, and it's a double edged sword. On some things, I push, work, nag, worry, and make sure they get done absolutely perfectly (these are things like my job, where my livelihood and the opinions of others are affected). On others, if I feel I can't do them perfectly, or in...

Gigalos - I like the 'I love sleeping' myself! :) Walt - the tea is a blend - Chamomile is one of the ingredients. It's called Organic Nighty Night.

Night is still my worst time, too. My daily pain all went away almost immediately, but I'm still struggling at night. That has always been when I have my worst symptoms, and the thought keeps popping up in my head that I'm expecting too much from TMS therapy if I think it's going to fix that...

Since discovering TMS early last week, I have been reading, posting, journaling, etc. etc. with great enthusiasm. Until today. I woke up and started my work week, and felt cranky about having to do TMS work today. I thought about putting it off, doing day 7 on calendar day 8, but then I...

Thanks, Walt. Both of my parents are gone, too. I was good with my mom long before her passing, but still had issues with my dad when he died and probably always would have. I found that hard to live with for awhile. He just never thought his behavior was a problem, so everything going wrong...

I learned from Amazon that my Subscribe and Save are not currently eligible for the Smile program. Bummer! But the 'currently' makes me hope they are considering it for the future. I still spend a lot there, so it's still good.

ajayddave - Boy, can I relate to that. I had excessive allergy symptoms for years. I was having a bad, bad runny nose day when I had to be in a conference for work. I used the tissues I had in my pockets, and realized they were not going to be enough, and I brought a box of tissues into the...

I started some serious journaling today, and found I was arguing with myself as I faced some childhood memories. I remember things that happened that profoundly affected me where I felt terrible shame, betrayal, and guilt as the child, but in reliving them from my 58 year old perspective, I...
